The Power of Philanthropy John G UMASS MEDICINE Annual Report of Donors 2011 the power of philanthropy John G. O’Brien (left) and Michael F. Collins, MD the power of leadership It is our pleasure to present this Annual Report of Donors for the 2011 fiscal year. As with past editions, this publication serves to celebrate the generosity of our donors, as well as showcase the very real impact of their contributions for, and partnership with, UMass Medical School and UMass Memorial Health Care. As you will see in the dynamic stories presented within these pages, commitments of private funds are vital to the advancement of medical knowledge and education, and the implementation of new methods of health care delivery at our academic health sciences center. Those advancements are what enable us to fulfill our critical and joint mission of advancing the health and well-being of the people in the commonwealth and the world. The formula for our future success, and that of our entire academic health sciences center, relies on a number of components. Key among those are philanthropy and, more specifically, our generous advocates whose steadfast financial support propels us forward in the fulfillment of our mission. As public funds become less plentiful, charitable donations become even more essential to our future. The generosity demonstrated by so many clearly signifies a powerful commitment to our work and the communities we serve. It also signifies that philanthropy has the power to inspire future health care practitioners, encourage researchers, enhance care and support those in need. We are extremely grateful that the philanthropic activities of so many include the important work being conducted here, and we feel privileged to acknowledge the names of those individuals and organizations who provided financial support to UMass Medical School and UMass Memorial Health Care in the last fiscal year. Whether made to the UMass ALS Champion Fund, to cancer research and care, to the Fund-A-Need project during the Winter Ball, to a volunteer program or to a fund supporting patients and families with extraordinary financial needs, all gifts make a difference. On behalf of our united institutions, we humbly thank you for your support. Michael F. Collins, MD John G.

An ongoing partner in the ALS fight Another champion that has partnered with the Medical School in the fight against ALS is The Angel Fund. Based in Massachusetts, The Angel Fund receives support from many community outreach efforts, including the Sharon Timlin Memorial 5K Race that was established in memory of the mother of former Red Sox pitcher, Mike Timlin. In con- junction with other fundraising events, The Angel Fund has contributed more than $650,000 to UMMS to date, all in support of ALS investigations in Dr. Brown’s internationally recognized laboratory, the Cecil B. Day Laboratory for Neuromuscular Research. Rich Kennedy, president of The Angel Fund, is an ardent advocate for ALS research; he lost both his father and brother to the disease. “I like to consider us as one big family of like-minded individuals who all have shared a great loss,” Kennedy said. “That is why we do this, why it is so important to us and why we will never stop until there is a cure for this terrible disease.” P a g e 4 Governor Paul Cellucci (center) is joined by Chancellor Michael F.

  • Representative Robert A. Durand
    Berkshire Woods and Waters: Durand named to Fisheries and Wildlife Board BY GENE C HAGUE, Eagle correspondent Saturday, May 25, 2019 Robert Durand is sworn in as a member of the state's Fisheries and Wildlife Board of Directors by Lt. Gov. Karyn Polito, right, as his wife Nancy watches on. Governor Charlie Baker has named Robert A. Durand, president of Durand & Anastas Environmental Strategies, an environmental consulting and lobbying firm, to the Massachusetts Fisheries and Wildlife Board. Lieutenant Governor Karyn Polito conducted the swearing-in ceremony for the five-year term last Wednesday. State Rep. William “Smitty” Pignatelli, D-Lenox, Chairman of the Joint Committee on Environment, Natural Resources and Agriculture, was one of about 10 Representatives and Senators who attended the swearing in. Smitty said some nice words and reminded everyone of how close Bob was to the late George (Gige) Darey. “I am so pleased and honored to receive this nomination to the board, which has been a part of my life in one way or another for most of my life,” Durand said. “I’m thankful to Gov. Baker and Lt. Gov. Polito for their confidence in me to carry out this vital mission to protect many critical aspects of our natural world, and with it, our quality of life in Massachusetts.” As one of the seven-member board, Durand will represent the Northeast Region, Middlesex and Essex counties, and replaces Fred Winthrop, who resigned from the board last fall. The board has various duties, including writing and overseeing all hunting and fishing regulations, Natural Resources and Endangered Species Act regulations, and is the appointing authority for the director of MassWildlife.

Fifth ed., © 2008 Docents R IL CONSOLE GENERALE D’ITALIA BOSTON On the occasion of the latest edition of the booklet “Italy Under the Golden Dome,” I would like to congratulate the October Italian Heritage Month Committee for making it available, once again, to all those interested to learn about the wonderful contributions that Italian artists have made to the State House of Massachusetts. In this regard I would also like to avail myself of this opportunity, if I may, to commend the Secretary of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, the Hon. William F. Galvin, for the cooperation that he has graciously extended to the Committee in this particular endeavor. Italians and Italian Americans are rightly proud of the many extraordinary works of art that decorate the State House, works that are either made by Italian artists or inspired by the Italian tradition in the field of art and architecture. It is therefore particularly fitting that the October Italian Heritage Month Committee has taken upon itself the task of celebrating this unique contribution that Italians have made to the history of Massachusetts. Consul General of Italy, Boston OCTOBER IS ITALIAN-AMERICAN HERITAGE MONTH On behalf of the Committee to Observe October as Italian-American Heritage Month, we are pleased and honored that Secretary William Galvin, in cooperation with the Massachusetts Art Commission and the Doric Docents of the Massachusetts State House, has agreed to publish this edition of the Guide.
